Same As Past Season

A shorn wool incentive price of 62

_ cents per pound of wool and a mohair in-

centive price of 70 cents per pound have
been announced by the U S. Department
of Agriculture for the 1957 marketing
year beginning April 1, 1957. These prices
are the same as those for the 1955 and
1956 marketing years.

Approximately $55 million dollars in
shorn wool and lamb and yearling (pulled

made through Aug. 24 on producers 1953

Destroy Cotton Stalks

Now Specialists Urge

Rains throughout the State in recent
weeks has caused cotton plants to begin
a second growth. This can cause trouble

for the 1957 cotton crop according to cot-

ton specialists, W. H. Sell and D. L. Bran-
yon.

The specialists pointed out that this
second growth not only uses residual
fertilizer that may be left in the soil for
a future crop, but offers an excellent food
supp.y and breeding place for boll weevils
and diseases of cotton. A boll weevil that
is healthy and well fed when winter be-



Farm Boys At Work
To Stamp Out Disease

By PHIL CAMPBELL
Commissioner of Agriculture

The Grayson FFA Chapter is doing
an outstanding job of helping stamp out
brucellosis or Bangs disease among cat-
tle herds in its area of Gwinnett County.

The program first got underway when
the dangers of brucellosis infection in cat-
tle were first taught to members of the
Grayson FFA Chapter and explained at
two adult farm meetings in which the lo-
cal veterinarian, Dr. W. A. Elinburg, Jr.
participated.

Later when the hracellosis eradication

| program was enlarged and the State De-

partment of Agriculture began its drive
to make Georgia brucellosis free by 1960,
the Grayson chapter decided to make the
program one of its cooperative activities.

Chapter members contacted Dr. Elin-
burg and worked out a testing schedule
whereby he agreed to go anywhere in the
community to test cattle.

Then the Future Farmers of Grayson
really got to work. Each member agreed
to sell the program to his parents and his.
neighbors, keep them informed of test
dates and urge them to have all their cat-
tle ready for test on that particular date.
The boys keep records which include the
names of the farmers anc number of head
of cattle for testing and these records are
turned in by each FFA member for con-
solidation.

When records show approximately
100 cows located and consigned to test a
test date is set. Two days previous to the
test date a post card is sent to each farmer
concerned reminding him of the date for
testing and urginghim to be sure his cat-
tle ave penned up so that the testing can
be done as quickly as possible.

As the day of testing nears Vo-Ag
teacher L. J, Williams takes the names of
all the farmers and makes up a travel list.
He then goes with the veterinarian to each
farm and assists him in any way he can
as the tests are made.

In just three days, through this plan-
ned program, brucellosis tests were made
on an estimated 90 percent of the cows in

were run on 128 cows from 42 different
herds.

The Grayson Future Farmers found
farmers in their area very receptive to
the organized program and anxious to
have their cattle tested. Even farmers
from a neighboring community who
heard about the program contacted teach-
er Williarms and asked if their community
could be included in the program.

This is an outstanding example of
how one group of interested persons can
help rid-an entire community of a live-
stock disease that costs farmers thousands
of dollars each year. -

Through their interest in better farm-

the Grayson Future Farmers, their teach-

valuable service to their community.
